DRAWINGS; ODDS; NOTIFICATION. Sponsor will randomly select five (5) potential winners from among all eligible entries received by Sponsor during the Sweepstakes Period. Odds of winning a prize depend on the number of eligible entries received by Sponsor.

In such event, an alternate potential prize winner will be notified as described above; provided, however, Sponsor may alter the above timing to meet its Sweepstakes schedule. Once an entrant has won a prize, they are no longer eligible to win any other prize during the Sweepstakes Period of the Sweepstakes.
